We're Mare and Raigan from Metanet Software and here is our somewhat ridiculous commentary of the N++ PAX Prime Tournament Finals! Don't worry, we'll find other commentators for future tournaments ;)

To debut N++'s new-and-improved competitive multiplayer mode, Race Mode, we held a tournament at PAX Prime 2014. Qualifiers were on Friday and Saturday, and the top 8 finalists played in the Finals on Sunday, August 31. It was awesome -- incredibly tense and exciting, and everyone played really really well.
Finalists each won a special edition tshirt and were ultimately playing for a brand new PS4 with a custom N++ decal. Check out photos here: https://twitter.com/metanetsoftware/status/506107991977103361/photo/1
We've been tweaking the rules of Race Mode to make them more competitive and deep for esports players, so expect more tournaments in the future, and in the meantime check out the rules in this large chunk of gameplay footage! Keep an eye on our devblog for updates:
